Working with dust extraction

Dust-free, residue-free drilling with a secure hold: Thanks to the drill dust nozzle and the patented dual-chamber system, drilling holes up to a maximum diameter of 12 mm in floors, walls and ceilings is effortless. A flexible joint piece ensures the optimum hose position and the foam rubber pad provides a secure hold even on uneven surfaces.

More power. Longer service life

Make a show of power, not amp-hours

The new Festool Li-ion 5.2 Ah battery pack with AIRSTREAM. The new AIRSTREAM technology guarantees faster re-use of battery packs and thus guarantees interruption-free work – even for energy-intensive applications such as sawing. This is because the new battery packs have an integrated cooling duct, thanks to which the cooling time and, as a result, the entire charging process can be reduced by up to 65% in combination with the new SCA 8 rapid charger. Furthermore, they are extremely robust with an integrated rubber frame to protect the workpiece and the battery pack and, thanks to the charge indicator, you can always clearly see how much charge is left in the battery.

The unbeatable combination when it comes to (operational) performance: EC-TEC and 5.2 Ah

Brushless EC-TEC motor with integrated motor management for a long service life and maximum performance, marked by the tremendous impact energy of the BHC 18. Combined with the high-quality 18 V 5.2 Ah Li-ion AIRSTREAM battery packs, EC-TEC not only achieves maximum performance, but also maximum endurance.
